(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 offer Facebook, Twitter, world-class EA games and access
to thousands of apps from the Nokia Store
Karachi, Pakistan - Nokia has today unveiled two new mobile phone models as it
continues to accelerate its strategy to connect the next billion consumers to
information and the internet. The Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 have been designed to
appeal to young, urban consumers who want to experience a fast, affordable
online experience.
Both devices are perfect for communicating across Facebook, Twitter and social
media networks. The internet experience is also smooth thanks to the Nokia
Browser. This innovative technology allows users to consume less data by up to
90%, by compressing websites in the cloud. Both devices offer direct access to
Facebook and Twitter from their home screens. The Nokia 112 also features
preloaded eBuddy instant messaging service right out of the box, so users can
use popular chat services to keep conversations going 24/7.
In common with other Nokia mobile phones, consumers can choose from thousands of
apps to download on the Nokia Store. With the upgraded camera, they can now
customize their contacts with pictures, and share them with friends via social
networks and Bluetooth.
"Today's mobile phone users want a quick internet experience that allows them to
discover great content and share it with their friends - but without being held
back by high data costs," said Mary T. McDowell, executive vice president,
Mobile Phones, Nokia. "The new Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 devices combine browsing,
social media, apps, world-class entertainment and long battery life to create a
great package for young, urban consumers who want to do it all."
Perfect for all-day and all-night entertainment
The devices all feature a generous 1.8" display optimized for a great gaming
experience. In the coming months, the Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 will bring free*
40 key EA Games, valued at EUR 75 if bought separately, including well known
titles like Tetris®, Bejeweled®, Need for Speed(TM) The Run, Monopoly Here &
Now, and SimCity(TM) Deluxe. Consumers will be able to easily access the content
by clicking on the Games Gift EA icon on their home screen which will take them
to the Nokia Store to download the games. Once they have accessed the offering,
they will have 60 days to download the games of their choice, keeping the games
forever.
Both new phones offer an improved VGA camera for sharp and clear pictures with
support for up to 32GB of external memory, enough for more than 6000+ songs or
90,000 pictures. Consumers can tune into their favorite radio stations and share
their favorite songs with friends over Bluetooth. The phones have been optimized
to provide a long-lasting battery life, with over 10 hours of talk time and
nearly a month's standby, meaning that consumers can stay in-touch and
entertained all day long.
Dual SIM capability
The Nokia 110 and Nokia 112 are both Dual SIM phones, featuring the benefits of
Nokia's unique and industry leading Easy Swap technology. This enables users to
switch between SIMs quickly without having to remove their battery or turn off
their phone. The Easy Swap technology can personalize and remember up to five
different SIM cards, giving consumers full control over their costs.
The Nokia 110 will also be available as single SIM versions - Nokia 111 and
Nokia 113, with this last one available in Europe and Eurasia only.
The estimated retail price for Nokia 110 and its single SIM versions is about
EUR 35 and they are expected to start shipping in the second quarter of 2012.
The estimated retail price for Nokia 112 is about EUR 38, excluding taxes and
subsidies, and is expected to start shipping in the third quarter of 2012.
